Objective:To establish a new strategy for rapid correction of the interference of chyle blood on hemoglobin (HGB) and related indexes by reticulocyte (RET) channel research parameters (HGB-O, MCHC-O) from automatic hematological analyzer.Methods:With the diagnostic experimental design, a total of 90 impatient samples were sequential picked from Fuwai Hospital, which had routine blood testing from June 1 to July 31, 2021. The selected samples were free of hemolysis, jaundice, chylo. The age of the patients was (49.2±5.7) years, with 47 males and 43 females. Three different contents(25, 50, 75 μl) of fat emulsion injection were used to replace plasma in equal amounts to prepare chyle blood samples with mild, medium and heavy degrees of average red blood cell hemoglobin concentration (MCHC). The research parameters (HGB-O, MCHC-O) obtained by the RET channel detection of the automatic blood analyzer were used as the corrected HGB and its related index values (RET method), and the original values (the detection values before adding fat emulsion) and the formula correction values were paired with t-test or Wilcoxon signed rank test, single factor analysis of variance or Kruskal-Wallis rank-sum test, Bland-Altman and correlation analysis to evaluate the correction effect of RET method.Results:There was no significant difference ( H=0.035, P=0.983; H=0.097, P=0.953; H=0.112, P=0.945) between the RET correction values of HGB (g/L) [104.0(83.8, 132.8), 109.0(87.78, 128.25), 104.0(87.8, 131.8)] and the original values [104.0(83.0, 133.0), 107.5(86.75, 129.25), 103.5(85.8, 131.3)] and the formula correction values [104.0(84.0, 133.8), 106.0(86.75, 131.25), 102.5(86.8, 131.3)] in the samples of chythemia with varying degrees of MCHC (g/L) elevation; meanwhile, the RET correction values [366.5(325.8, 341.5), 333.5(323.8, 340.0), 333.5(327.0, 341.25)] and the original values [336.0(324.8, 342.0), 333.0(323.5, 342.3), 332.0(326.75, 340.5)] and the formula correction values [333.5(323.5, 343.3), 331.0(321.0, 338.3), 329.5(325.25, 337.25)] were also not statistically significant ( H=0.049, P=0.976; H=3.149, P=0.207; H=0.883, P=0.643). The detection values of HGB and related indexes corrected by RET method were in good agreement with the original values [96.7% (29/30) of the points were within the 95% consistency limit], and the two were positively correlated (the correlation coefficients were all higher than 0.919, P<0.01). Conclusion:The RET method based on the research parameters of RET channel of automatic hematological analyzer can serve as a new strategy to correct the interference of chyle blood on the detection of HGB and related indexes.

Professor Qiu Maoliang,in his clinical practice and experience summary of acupuncture-moxibustion in the treatment of febrile diseases,proposes four acupuncture-moxibustion antipyretic methods,namely,releasing the exterior and reducing fever,clear-ing the interior and purging the heat,nourishing the yin and purging the heat,and assisting the yang and reducing fever,which respec-tively correspond to the exterior heat syndrome,interior heat syndrome,yin deficiency fever syndrome,and yang deficiency fever syn-drome.The academic connotation of Professor Qiu Maoliang's acupuncture-moxibustion for fever can be summarized as examining the syndrome and seeking the cause,and classifying fever;coordinating the four methods of acupuncture-moxibustion and operation tech-niques,which reflect Professor Qiu Maoliang's academic characteristics,such as the convergence of Chinese and Western medicine,mutual learning of acupuncture-moxibustion and medicine,and the connection of effect mechanism and theory.Professor Qiu Ma-oliang's academic thought of acupuncture-moxibustion antipyretic method not only helps to provide basis for further application of acu-puncture-moxibustion in contemporary clinical practice,but also enriches the modern biological connotation of acupuncture-moxibus-tion medicine.
